Ulcerative colitis （UC）， a chronic relapsing inflammatory bowel disease， involves multifaceted pathological mechanisms such as intestinal barrier dysfunction， immune dysregulation， and oxidative stress. Current therapeutic strategies remain limited in efficacy and safety. In recent years， the adenosine monophosphate-activated protein kinase （AMPK） signaling pathway has emerged as a pivotal therapeutic target for UC due to its central role in energy metabolism， inflammatory regulation， and intestinal homeostasis. This article systematically reviewed the mechanisms by which traditional Chinese medicine （TCM） prevented and treated UC through the regulation of the AMPK signaling pathway， with a focus on elucidating AMPK's multidimensional regulatory network in inflammatory signaling crosstalk， alleviating oxidative stress， restoring intestinal immune balance， repairing the intestinal barrier， and modulating gut microbiota. Leveraging its unique advantages of multi-target engagement and low toxicity， TCM demonstrates promising potential in UC treatment and has become a focal area of research. By systematically summarizing and synthesizing the existing literature on TCM-mediated AMPK pathway modulation in UC， this review aims to provide a theoretical foundation for advancing mechanistic research and clinical interventions in UC.

Objective To explore the identification method,pathogenesis,clinical characteristics and individualized pharmacotherapy of asymptomatic hyperuricemia after renal transplantation.Methods The pharmacist was on duty at the organ transplant outpatient clinic.During this time,they analyzed and sorted out the medications,identified and differentiated a case of asymptomatic hyperuricemia related to spironolactone in a patient who had undergone a renal transplant,and provided comprehensive care throughout the entire process.Results The asymptomatic hyperuricemia in this patient might be associated with spironolactone,and the adverse reactions of the patient were alleviated by pharmacists through optimizing clinical treatment.Up to now,no hyperuricemia occurred.Conclusions Pharmacists are required to collaborate closely with clinicians to establish medication profiles for patients under long-term follow-up and to closely monitor and evaluate drug-related adverse reactions.Additionally,they should assess the renal function and immune status of transplant recipients promptly and formulate individualized treatment plans in order to enhance the long-term survival of both the transplanted kidneys and the recipients.

Objective:To translate the Maastricht Clinical Teaching Questionnaire (MCTQ) into Chinese and evaluate its reliability and validity in standardized training of residents.Methods:The Chinese version of MCTQ was obtained according to the Brislin translation model, including translation, back-translation, and cross-cultural debugging. A convenient sampling survey was carried out among the trainees in the First Affiliated Hospital of Shandong First Medical University in June 2022 by using an online survey tool. A total of 562 valid questionnaires were collected. Data from valid survey questionnaires were subjected to item analysis (critical ratio method), reliability analysis (Cronbach's alpha coefficient and composite reliability), structural validity analysis (exploratory factor analysis and confirmatory factor analysis), and discriminant validity analysis using SPSS 25.0 and AMOS 24.0 software.Results:The Chinese version of MCTQ scale consisted of 24 items, which was consistent with the original scale. Four common factors were extracted with a cumulative variance contribution of 79.96%. The four-factor model demonstrated high goodness of fit. The χ2/d f, RMR, RMSEA, GFI, AGFI, NFI, and CFI were 3.491, 0.008, 0.067, 0.886, 0.861, 0.947, and 0.962, respectively. Both Cronbach's α and composite reliability exceeded 0.7, indicating high internal consistency and reliability. The correlation coefficients between the four factors ranged from 0.265 to 0.307, all of which were smaller than the corresponding square roots of average variance extracted, demonstrating high structural and discriminant validity. Conclusions:The Chinese version of MCTQ is valid and reliable in the Chinese context and can serve as a useful tool to evaluate the performance of clinical teachers during standardized residency training.

Objective:To systematically evaluate the current status of research on the development of indicators for entrustable professional activities (EPAs) of residents in China.Methods:We searched the China National Knowledge Infrastructure, Wanfang Data, Airiti Library, PubMed, Embase, and Web of Science databases for literature on the development of EPA indicators for residents in China published between January 1, 2005 and February 28, 2025. Two researchers independently screened the literature and extracted data, followed by descriptive analysis. The quality of the studies was assessed using the Joanna Briggs Institute critical appraisal tool for expert opinion. Quantitative data were presented as medians (ranges) and qualitative data were presented as frequencies (percentages).Results:A total of eight articles were included, in which two general EPA indicator systems and six specialty-specific EPA indicator systems were developed for residents. The overall quality of the research was high, with the main shortcomings related to the methods used in the process of constructing the consensus indicators. The number of experts recruited ranged from 22 to 45, with 100.00% response rate, high authority coefficients (0.820-0.914), and high coordination coefficients (0.157-0.741). Most of the studies used literature reviews as one source for the indicator pool (8 studies, 100.00%), employed the Delphi method to reach consensus (6 studies, 75.00%), and provided inclusion criteria for the indicators (7 studies, 87.50%). However, only one study (12.50%) explored the practical application of the developed indicators, and none of the studies set indicator weights or conducted quality assessments. The number of EPA indicators developed ranged from 10 to 38 per study. The reporting of EPA indicators was included in most studies regarding titles (8 studies, 100.00%) and the expected levels of entrustment at various stages of training (6 studies, 75.00%), but the reporting on other aspects was lacking. Among the specialty-specific EPA indicators, 38.39% overlapped with the general EPAs indicators.Conclusions:The research on the development of EPA indicators for residents in China is still in its early stages, and there is room for improvement in methodological quality and reporting coverage. There is partial overlap between specialty-specific and general EPA indicators, failing to fully reflect the unique characteristics of different specialties.

Objective:To investigate the current status of Chinese-foreign cooperative education programs for medical majors, and to discuss the potential problems and development trends of this field.Methods:Related data were collected from the information platform of Chinese-Foreign Cooperation in Running Schools by Ministry of Education of the People's Republic of China, and the characteristics of Chinese-foreign cooperative education programs for medical majors were extracted for analysis. Categorical data were expressed as frequency (percentage), and continuous data were expressed as mean±standard deviation.Results:A total of 83 Chinese-foreign cooperative education programs for medical majors were included in the study, accounting for only 3.45% (83/2 406) of all programs. Chinese partners in these cooperative programs were mainly from East China (41 programs, 49.40%), while foreign partners were mainly from Europe (39 programs, 46.99%). The mean duration of these programs was (3.61±0.88) years, with an enrollment of (87.08±35.52) students. Most of the students were included in National General Higher Education Enrollment Plan (79 programs, 95.18%), and the main majors included nursing (39 programs, 46.99%), medical technology (19 programs, 22.89%), and clinical medicine (11 programs, 13.25%), with the main enrollment level of junior college (45 programs, 54.22%). Chinese partners in the cooperative programs mainly issued academic certificate (45 programs, 54.22%) or academic certificate plus degree certificate (36 programs, 43.37%), while most foreign partners did not issue such certificates (44 programs, 53.01%).Conclusions:There are several problems in Chinese-foreign cooperative education programs for medical majors, such as a limited number of programs, a significant regional difference, an imbalanced distribution of specialties, a low level of education, and inconsistency in issuance of certificates, which still requires further improvement and standardization. However, there are also high-level and high-quality programs for reference.

McCune-Albright syndrome(MAS) is a postzygotic somatic mutation disorder caused by activating mutations in the GNAS gene, which encodes the α subunit of the stimulatory G protein. Its clinical features typically include polyostotic fibrous dysplasia, cafe-au-lait skin pigmentation, and endocrine hyperactivity, such as Cushing′s syndrome, hyperthyroidism, and growth hormone excess. Here, we report two rare cases of MAS complicated with adrenocorticotropic hormone(ACTH)-independent Cushing syndrome, and provide a review and analysis of previously reported MAS cases associated with Cushing′s syndrome.

Objective:To understand the evolution and variation characteristics of the H1N1 influenza virus in Wuxi City from 2018 to 2023.Methods:Real time PCR was used to perform nucleic acid testing on throat swab samples of influenza like cases sent to sentinel hospitals for testing. The influenza A (H1N1) pdm09 positive samples were subjected to cell culture, and nucleic acid was extracted from strains with a red blood cell agglutination test (HA) ≥1∶8. The whole genome sequence was amplified, and a library was constructed. The MiSeq sequencer was used for sequencing on the machine. Using NC_026431.1 as a reference strain, we analyzed the offline data using CLC Genomics Workbench (Version 23) software. MEGA 7.0 software was used to construct a phylogenetic tree, and NetNGlyc 1.0 Server software was used to predict N-glycosylation sites.Results:The nucleotide and amino acid homology between 38 strains of A (H1N1) pdm09 influenza virus from 2018 to 2023 were 96.06%-100% and 96.12%-100%, respectively. From February to May 2023, all 12 strains of A (H1N1) pdm09 had two amino acid mutation sites occurring in the HA antigenic determinant cluster, namely the Ca region (A203T) and the Cb region (K71Q). No mutations were found in the HA receptor binding site and NA resistance site. The strains from January to June 2018 belong to the 6B. 1A evolutionary branch, the strains from December 2018 to January 2020 belong to three evolutionary branches: 6B. 1A. 1, 6B. 1A. 5a, and 6B. 1A. 7, and the strains from February to May 2023 belong to the 6B. 1A. 5a. 2a evolutionary branch. 38 strains of A (H1N1) pdm09 HA gene all have 7 potential N-glycosylation sites, while NA gene has 7-8 potential N-glycosylation sites.Conclusions:There are characteristic amino acid mutation sites of H1N1 influenza A in Wuxi City from 2018 to 2023. The emergence of these mutation sites may affect the virus′s transmission and antigenic changes.

Objective:To observe the changes of retinal and choroidal blood flow density and thickness in macula of different myopic dioptre eyes, and to analyze the correlation between retinal and choroidal blood flow density and axial length (AL).Methods:A retrospective clinical study. From October 2022 to May 2023, 86 eyes of 56 myopic patients scheduled for refractive surgery in Department of Ophthalmology, PLA Central Theater CommandGeneral were included into the study. According to the equivalent spherical specular degree (SE), 19, 21, 27 and 19 eyes of low myopia group (group A), moderate myopia group (group B), high myopia group (group C) and super high myopia group (group D) were observed. Optical coherence tomography angiography (OCTA) and AL measurement were performed in all patients. The diopter was expressed in SE. AL was measured by ultrasonic bio-meter. OCTA scanner was used to scan the macular region in the range of 3 mm × 3 mm. The software automatically divided the macular region into two concentric circles with the fovea as the center, which were 1 mm in diameter respectively, the paracentric fovea of 1-3 mm was divided into 5 regions: superior, nasal, inferior and temporal. The superficial capillary plexus (SCP), deep capillary plexus (DCP), choroidal capillary plexus (CC), choroidal blood flow density, retinal and choroidal thickness were measured. The correlation between AL and blood flow density and thickness was analyzed by Pearson correlation analysis.Results:There was no significant difference in SCP blood density and DCP blood density in the fovea in groups A, B, C and D ( P>0.05) .There were significant differences in DCP flow density among superior, nasal, inferior and temporal areas ( P<0.05), the difference was significant ( P<0.05). There was no significant difference in the fovea area between the four groups ( P>0.05), but there was significant difference in the superior, nasal, inferior and temporal areas ( P<0.05). Different macular regions: there were statistically significant among group A, group B, and group C, group D ( P<0.05). Results of correlation analysis, AL was negatively correlated with DCP blood flow density ( r=-0.504, -0.500, -0.460, -0.465), retinal thickness ( r=-0.348, -0.338, -0.312, -0.230), macular subarea CC ( r=-0.633, -0.666, -0.667, -0.710, -6.82), choroidal layer ( r=-0.635, -0.687, -0.659, -0.703, -0.680) and choroidal thickness ( r=-0.665, -0.605, -0.656, -0.648,-0.643) ( P<0.05). Conclusions:AL is negatively correlated with DCP, CC, CDF, retinal and choroidal thickness in the eyes with myopia. SCP, DCP and retinal thickness in fovea did not change significantly, and temporal choroidal thickness changed earlier than other areas.

Ulcerative colitis （UC）， a chronic， non-specific inflammatory bowel disease with typical symptoms such as abdominal pain， diarrhea， and bloody stools， demonstrates a high relapse rate and difficulty in curing. Sishenwan， first recorded in Internal Medicine Abstract （Nei Ke Zhai Yao）， are a classic prescription for treating diarrhea caused by deficiency of the spleen and kidney Yang. The core therapeutic principle of Sishenwan is warming and tonifying the spleen and kidney， and astringing the intestine and stopping diarrhea. In recent years， Sishenwan have demonstrated distinct advantages in the clinical treatment of UC. The pathogenesis of UC involves multiple factors， including immune dysregulation and gut microbiota imbalance. Although Western medicine is effective in the short term， its side effects， high relapse rate， and resistance associated with long-term use pose substantial challenges. Sishenwan have shown excellent clinical outcomes in the treatment of UC due to deficiency of the spleen and kidney Yang. Modern clinical studies indicate that Sishenwan， used alone or in combination with Western medicine or other Chinese medicine compound prescriptions， significantly improve the clinical efficacy in treating UC due to deficiency of the spleen and kidney Yang. Sishenwan effectively alleviate core symptoms such as mucus， pus， and blood in stools， and persistent abdominal pain， reduce Mayo scores and the relapse rate， and improve patients' quality of life. Research on the material basis reveals that Sishenwan contain multiple active ingredients such as psoralen， isopsoralen， and evodiamine. Mechanism studies indicate that Sishenwan inhibit the inflammatory cascade reactions by regulating the signal network through multiple targets. Sishenwan regulate cellular immunity and restore intestinal immune homeostasis. At the microecological level， Sishenwan promote the intestinal barrier repair through the "microbiota-metabolism-immunity" axis. The current research still needs to be deepened in aspects such as the mining of specific biomarkers for syndromes and the exploration of the collaborative mechanism of traditional Chinese and Western medicine. In the future， a full-chain system covering syndrome differentiation， targeting， and monitoring needs to be constructed for promoting the paradigm transformation of Sishenwan into precision drugs. This review systematically explains the treatment mechanism of Sishenwan regarding the combination of disease and syndrome and its multi-target regulatory characteristics， providing a theoretical basis and transformation direction for the treatment of UC with integrated traditional Chinese and Western medicine.
